2025 Volkswagen Tiguan: A Fresh Take on an Iconic SUV
A New Generation of the Tiguan
Introducing the third-generation Volkswagen Tiguan, completely reimagined for 2025. With updated styling that caters to American tastes and a range of modern enhancements inside, this SUV is sure to impress. However, it's worth noting that Volkswagen has made the decision to offer the Tiguan exclusively in a two-row configuration going forward.
Power and Efficiency Meet
The 2025 Tiguan boasts an upgraded turbocharged 2.0-liter EA888 engine that delivers a performance boost compared to its predecessor. With 201 horsepower under the hood and an eight-speed automatic gearbox, this SUV offers a thrilling driving experience. Additionally, 4Motion all-wheel drive models now have an increased towing capacity of 1,800 pounds.
But it's not just about power; Volkswagen has also prioritized fuel efficiency. Through the use of aluminum in the suspension and body structure, the 2025 Tiguan shed around 170 pounds compared to the previous model. This, combined with the adoption of the MQB Evo platform, contributes to improved fuel economy.
A Refreshed Design
The exterior of the 2025 Tiguan showcases a fresh and athletic design. With its shorter rear overhang and larger dimensions, this SUV strikes the perfect balance between style and practicality. The sharp crease down the body, squared wheel wells, and rear spoiler further enhance its sporty appeal. The standard 17-inch wheels can be upgraded to 19- and 20-inch options for added customization.
Enhanced Interior Features
Step inside the cabin of the 2025 Tiguan and discover a wealth of upgrades. The 10.25-inch Digital Cockpit and standard 12.9-inch infotainment display create a sleek and intuitive tech hub. Two-zone Climatronic automatic climate control ensures optimal comfort, with the option to upgrade to a three-zone system. The center console storage capacity has been increased to 7.6 liters, providing ample space for your belongings.
Other notable interior enhancements include an available 12-speaker Harmon Kardon sound system, improved wireless charging capabilities, and additional airbags for enhanced safety. The IQ.Drive suite with features like forward collision warning and adaptive cruise control comes standard, and advanced technologies like head-up display and adaptive front lighting are also available.
The Future of the Tiguan
Pricing details for the 2025 Tiguan have not yet been released. However, considering its popularity as Volkswagen's best-selling nameplate in the US, it's expected to attract a wide range of buyers. With its all-new design, upgraded performance, and modern features, the 2025 Tiguan is ready to take its place as an icon in the SUV segment.
